Look elsewhere if
- Skip it if you are a small seller, as it is a full warehouse system
- Not for you if you want a price, as it is quoted after a demo
- Skip it if you want to try first, since no trial is listed
- Watch out: the pricing page was the only page read, and no integrations are named

- Works for 3PLs who need client billing and unmetered users and SKUs
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you are small: $15,000 a year is where Core starts, before onboarding
- Tight if you ship past the 25,000 allotment, as extra shipments are $0.24 each pay as you go
- Skip it if you want a trial, because none is offered
- Watch out: SSO is $500 a month on Core, and EDI and hardware are paid extras
- Watch out: wholesale orders over the allotment are $2.10 each

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
- The differences and the answers to the questions are worked out from those listings.
